Personally I love this...

Saw this posted in an FB Rolex group. The guy who posted was wondering what might have caused this dial to react the way it did, but it made me think Rolex would do well to come out with a tortoise shell dial. On a TT piece it would look amazing.

I’d call it the Big Bang dial.

Looks like it was involved in a motor accident.

Sorry, it's just my opinion, but it looks like vomit. The most shocking sphere I have ever seen in my life.
I'd like to know what happened to it to make it look like that. It would be very interesting.
Thanks for showing it
